About this study

Official title: Effect of Povidone-iodine 5% Vs 1% on the Ocular Surface As Antiseptic for Anti Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Intravitreal Injections

Objective and subjective comparison between the use of povidone-iodine 1% vs 5% as antiseptic in patients that need anti-VEGF intravitreal injection

Read the detailed description

Randomized, prospective clinical trial. One group was intervened with povidone-iodine at 5% and the other at 1% as antiseptic for anti-VEGF intravitreal injection. Each patient was evaluated before and after the injection of anti-VEGF for tear break up time, bulbar redness and ocular surface satining with fluorescein. Pain perception was also evaluated 15 minutes after the injection and 48 hours after.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Change of normal concentration of povidone-iodine 5% to 1%Procedure or surgery

    Normal concentration of povidone-iodine during anti-VEGF intravitreal injection was 5%. That concentration was utilized in the control group, and 1% in the experimental group.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Tear breaking rupture

    NIKBUT was measured with Keratopgraph before and after intravitreal injection

    Measured: Change from baseline measured to 15 minutes post-injection

  2. Bulbar redness

    Bulbar redness was measured with Keratopgraph before and after intravitreal injection

    Measured: Change from baseline measured to 15 minutes post-injection

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Oxford scale

    Oxford scale was measured with fluorescein stain before and after intravitreal injection

    Measured: Change from baseline measured to 15 minutes post-injection

  2. Pain analog scale

    Pain using visual analog scale was measured 15 minutes and 48 hours after intravitreal injection

    Measured: Change from baseline measured to 15 minutes post-injection

Model description
Clinical, prospective, randomized trial. Pre anti-VEGF intravitreal injection, with OCULUS Keratopgrapph 5M topograph, non invasive tear breaking time, bulbar redness, and Oxford scale with fluorescein staining were measured. During anti-VEGF injection, tetracaíne was use as anestetic. Povidone-iodine 1% or 5% was randomized as antiseptic. After anti-VEGF intravitreal injection, patients were examined again for tear bkreaking time, bulbar redness and Oxford sacle, plus pain 15 minutes after injection. Finally, two days after the injection, patients were interviwed by telephone about their pain.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Change of normal concentration of povidone-iodine 5% to 1% in people with Dry Eye, run by José Gerardo García Aguirre at 1 site in Mexico.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Tear breaking rupture (time frame: Change from baseline measured to 15 minutes post-injection). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
